2 Image Matching Using Run-Length Feature Yung-Kuan Chan and Chin-Chen Chang Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Chung Cheng University, Chiayi, Taiwan, 621, R.O.C. {chan, Abstract Color histogram is the most commonly used color feature in image retrieval systems. However, this feature cannot effectively characterize an image, since it only captures the global properties. To make the retrieval more accurate, this paper introduces a run-length feature. The feature integrates the information of color and shape of the objects in an image. It can effectively discriminate the directions, areas and geometrical shapes of the objects. Yet, extracting the run-length feature is time-consuming. For that reason, this paper also provides one revised representation of the run-length, called semi-run-length. Based on the semi-run-length feature, this paper develops an image retrieval system, and the experimental results show that the system gives an impressive performance. Keywords: color-based image retrieval, shape-based image retrieval, color histogram 1
3 1. Introduction Trademarks play an important role in providing unique identity for products and services in the marketing environment. Most of the images contain a group of large regions each with a uniform color if the pixel colors of the images are quantized down to a small subset of representative colors. Many other synthesized images like flags, traffic signs and cartoon images also possess this property. So far no guarantee can be made that new trademarks will not closely resemble existing ones. The size of class and the need for continuous updating have made automatic archiving and retrieval procedures highly desirable. Thus, similar image retrieval is essential for image databases. This paper will provide an effective image retrieval system to take care of this job. In this system, the user inputs the query image through a scanner. The system automatically extracts the visual features of the database and query images, and then it matches the visual features of the query image against those of the database images. The result is a set of images that are similar to the query image rather than an exact match. Color is a dominant visual feature widely used in many image retrieval systems. The color histogram is the most popular color representation (Sawhney et al., 1994; Stricker et al., 1994) because it is simple and computationally efficient. The color feature is insensitive to the orientation and resolution of images, and noise on images. Apart from that, color matching can be processed automatically without human intervention. Unfortunately, it is only a global attribute without any local information, so color alone is not sufficient to depict an image. Consider the two images in Fig. 1. Even if there is a significant difference in their appearances, we cannot distinguish them with the color feature since they have the same color histograms. To get the retrieval more accurately, this paper proposes a new feature, named run-length. This feature 2
4 fuses the color information as well as the shape knowledge of objects in an image. It can effectively characterize the direction, area and geometrical shape of an object. However, extracting the run-length feature is time-consuming. Thus, this paper also provides the semi-run-length feature, one alternative vision of the run-length. The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. A brief introduction to the related works is stated in the next section. Section 3 serves to introduce the new visual features, run-length and semi-run-length. Section 4 describes the proposed image retrieval system. Section 5 shows the experimental results. The conclusions are presented in the last section. 3
5 2. Related Works (Mehtre et al., 1995) proposed a reference color table method for image retrieval. The method defines a set of reference colors. This set of colors is selected such that all the colors in images are approximately covered perceptually. The method then computes a histogram for each image where each pixel in the image is classified against the reference color table and assigned to the nearest color. Thus, the color feature of the image is this reduced color histogram based on the colors of the reference table. Let f d = (? d1,? d2,,? dk ) be the histogram of an image I d, and f q = (? q1,? q2,,? qk ) be that of the other image I q.? di and? qi are the relative pixel frequencies (with respect to the total number of pixels) for the i-th color of reference table in the images I d and I q, respectively. k is the size of the reference color table. (Mehtre et al., 1995) defines the image matching distance between I d and I q as follows k? i? 1 2??? D???, where i di qi? i??? qi if? qi,? di? 0,?? 1 otherwise. This paper will compare experimentally the proposed semi-run-length method with this method. 4

7 3. The Run-Length Representation In general, a true color image system takes 24 bits to indicate a pixel color. It means that there are a total of approximately sixteen million possible pixel colors; nevertheless, only a small subset of them appears in a particular image. As a result, the cost of the high-speed memory required to support such displays on a high-resolution monitor makes true-color displays impractical and in fact unnecessary for many applications. An available approach is to offer a limited number of bits to specify a pixel color. In this way, a small subset of colors is picked out from the 2 24 colors where there is no noticeable difference between the original and quantized images. Then, each pixel of a color image is mapped to one 24-bit value in its related color palette. Two steps must be considered for designing a suitable palette: selecting an appropriate palette and mapping each input pixel to one entry of the palette. Many techniques (e.g. Kolpatzik et al and Pei et al., 1995) have been proposed to design the palette, so we shall not devote this paper to the part. Segmentation is very important for shape attributes. However, extracting objects from an image is very difficult because of discretization, occlusions, poor contrasts, viewing conditions, and noises, etc (Adoram et al., 1999). An image with a limited color palette is composed of a set of unicolor regions. In cases where the segmentation is less difficult and possible to overcome, this paper considers each unicolor region to be an object. Fig. 2(a) demonstrates the image consisting of the four objects A, B, C and D shown in Fig. 2(b). Here, the object D is the remains of the original image after removing the objects A, B, and C. An object can be enclosed by a minimum rectangle. Let the two orthogonal line segments L 1 and L 2 be two of the four sides of the minimum rectangle, and the length of L 1 is larger than or equal to that of L 2. We 6
8 call the inclination of L 1 the direction of the object, which can be described as the angle? drawn from X-axis to L 1 in the counterclockwise direction, and 0<? 180. For example, according to Fig. 3, the direction of the object B is 120. Unlike retrieval by colors, textures or spatial relationships, the shape attribute does not have a mathematical definition that exactly matches what the users feel as a shape (Bimbo et al., 1996; Bimbo et al., 1997). Therefore, capturing a perceptual shape similarity is in general difficult, as it requires a precise characterization of a class shapes. In this paper, two objects are considered to be similar to each other if their colors, areas, directions and geometric shapes are close. For instance, in Fig. 2(b), the areas and geometrical shapes of the objects A and B are the same, but their colors and directions are dissimilar. Color histogram is attractive because it is simple and computationally efficient. However, since the color histogram lacks the local information, it cannot distinguish the images with the similar histograms even though they have the difference appearances. To overcome the drawback, this section might introduce the run-length feature. It can efficiently describe the colors, directions, areas and geometrical shapes of the objects in an image. However, extracting the run-length feature from an image is time-consuming. Hence, this paper also presents a more efficient representation called semi-run-length, which is an alternative revision of the run-length. 7

10 3.1. The Run-Length Representation A run-length value is the number of consecutive pixels A i, A i+1,, A j along the scan line A A. Here, A i j i j A is composed of A i, A i+1,, A j with an identical color, where A i-1 differs in color from A i, and the color of A j is different from that of A j+1, either. We define the run-length as a? -run-length (? -RL) if the inclination of A A i j is?. In other words,? is the angle drawn from the X-axis to A in the A i j counterclockwise direction. Consider the three 3 3 color images shown in Fig. 4, where the color values of the pixels A 11, A 12,, A 33 are A, and those of the pixels B 11, B 12,, B 33 are B. The pixels A 11, A 22, and A 33 in Fig. 4(a) form a scan line A 11A33 ; the run-length is a 135º-RL, and the value is 3. Table1. The run-length values of the images in Fig. 4 Color Color A Color B? -RL 45º-RL 90º-RL 135º-RL 180º-RL 45º-RL 90º-RL 135º-RL 180º-RL f f f In the run-length representation, for each pixel P, there are only four run-length values to be considered: 45º-RL, 90º-RL, 135º-RL and 180º-RL, whose scan lines pass P. We call them the? -RLs of the pixel P, where? = 45º, 90º, 135º and 180º, respectively. Additionally, the? -RLs of a color C in an image are the summations of the related? -RLs of all the pixels with the color C. For instance, the 135º-RL of the pixel A 22 in Fig. 4(a) is 3, and the 135º-RL of the color A, namely the summation of the 135º-RLs of A 11, A 13, A 22, A 31 and A 33, is 11. Table 1 shows the? -RLs of the colors A and B of the images in Fig. 4. The color histograms of each image in Fig. 4 contain 5 pixels of the color A and 4 pixels of the color B. The color histogram alone cannot 9
11 discriminate the three images. However, the run-length representation can tell apart the three images f 1, f 2, and f 3 into three different classes. Thus, the discrimination of the run-length representation is more powerful than that of the color histogram The Semi-Run-Length Representation The run-length representation needs to calculate the run-length value for each pixel. Obviously, it is a time-consuming approach. In general, a computer system scans the pixels of an image row by row from top to bottom, and in each row, the pixels are visited sequentially from left to right. In this way, one can use a table to write down the partial run-length values of the pixels which have been visited. Consequently, the processing time hence can be reduced significantly. Next, this paper will propose a more efficient representation, called semi-run-length. The representation uses the partial run-lengths as the features of images. A? -semi-run-length (? -SRL) value of the pixel A i is the number of successive pixels A i, A i+1,, A j along the scan line A A. Here, the A i j i j A comprises A i, A i+1,, A j with the same color, so that A j differs in color from A j+1, and the inclination of A A is? with respect to A i j i. Similarly, the? -SRL of a color C in an image is also the summation of the related? -SRLs of all the pixels with the color C. In Fig. 4(a), the line segment A A consists of A and A 22 ; hence the 135º-run-length of A 22 is 2, not 3. Table 2 illustrates the semi-run-lengths of the colors A and B of the three images in Fig 4. The semi-run-length representation can tell the three images apart as well. The semi-run-length feature can discriminate the differences of directions, areas and geometrical shapes among objects as well. For example, the objects with the color A in Figures 4(a) and 4(b) have the same areas and geometrical shapes; nevertheless, 10
12 their? -semi-run-lengths are quite different since their directions are diverse. Similarly, the objects with the color A in Figures 4(b) and 4(c) have identical direction and area; nevertheless, their? -semi-run-lengths are still not alike because of their different geometrical shapes. In Fig. 2(b), the? -SRLs of the object A must be obviously larger than those of the object C in spite of the fact that they have the same direction and geometrical shape, because A is bigger than C. Table2.

Assume that Image is an N 1 N 2 image. Each of the entries on Image maps to the index of the closest color in a limited color palette. The following algorithm Semi-Run-Length is designed to compute the? -SRLs of the pixel colors in Image. In this algorithm, the variable SRL records the? -SRLs of the image. Its i-th entry consists of SRL[i].45º, SRL[i].90º, SRL[i].135º and SRL[i].180º which write down the 45º-SRL, 90º-SRL, 135º-SRL and 180º-SRL of the i-th color of palette, respectively. Additionally, one-dimension arrays PRL-45º, PRL-90º, PRL-135ºand PRL-180º are used to record the partial run length values of the pixels which have been visited. p is the size of common color palette. No_Pixel[k] is the number of pixels on Image whose colors are mapped to the k-th color of the common palette. The text embedded in a pair of braces is the given comments.

14 4. Image Retrieval Generally speaking, the design of a database system contains two parts: how to efficiently store and retrieve data in and from the database. The implementation of the proposed image retrieval system can be summarized as follows: In data storage aspect: The steps to build an image database are: (1) to transform each image into an N 1 N 2 contracted image, (2) to design a common palette for the contracted images, (3) to map all the pixels on each contracted image to the indices of the closest elements in the common palette, and to compute the histogram of the image, (4) to extract the? -SRLs of each contracted image. In data retrieval aspect: Given a query image Q, the steps to retrieve the similar database images are: (1) to transform Q into an N 1 N 2 contracted image, (2) to map each pixel of the contracted image to the index of the closest element in the common palette, and to compute the histogram of the contracted image, (3) to extract the? -SRLs of the contracted image, (4) to compute the image matching distance between Q and each database image, and (5) to return the images with the image matching distances less than a given threshold. A same scene may be characterized to variously sized images owing to some extrinsic factors such as the focal distances of cameras and the resolution of scanners. To eliminate size variances, many techniques in pattern recognition (Grarris et al., 1997) transmute all images to a consistent size. Similarity retrieval works effectively when 13
15 the users cannot express the queries in a precise way. In this way, an exact match query is not necessary, and a precise description is no need for the similar image retrieval, either. A smaller palette hence can be received by a similar image retrieval system, and each image can be transformed into a consistent contracted image that is regarded as the index of the color image. After extracting the semi-run-lengths from images, the? -SRLs SLR d and SLR q of a database image I d and the query image I q can be obtained. p is the size of the palette. In this system, the image matching distance between I d and I q is p? 2 2?.45??? SRL? k?.90? SRL? k?.? D =?? k?.45? SRLq? k? k? 1 SRL + d d q 90 2? SRL? k?.135 SRL? k?.135?? SRL? k?.180?

16 5. Experiments The purpose of the experiments is to compare the performance of the reference color table method (Mehtre et al., 1995) with that of the proposed semi-run-length method. Let D = {f 1, f 2,, f 400 } and Q = { f 1?, f 2?,, f? 400 } be two sets of color images containing 400 images. Here, f i and f? i are two different images randomly picked out from an identical animation. Most of the animations are downloaded from and The images in D are used as the database images, and those in Q as the query images. In these experiments, the system returns a short answer list of similar database images for each query image. We say the system precisely answers the query i if f i is in the answer list of the query i. L is the size of the answer list. Table 3 shows the experimental results. In this table, Ref and SRL denote the reference color table and semi-run-length methods. Acc writes down the average accuracy where the system precisely answers a query. Space is the total memory space required by the system in the experiments. Time is the average executive time for retrieving the images from database that satisfy the requirement of a query. The size of the common palette in these experiments is 27. Table 3. The experimental results Ref SRL Acc Space (%) (bytes) Time Acc Space (sec) (%) (bytes) Time (sec) L= L= L= L= L= The experiments demonstrate that the accuracy of semi-run-length method is 15
17 superior to that of the reference color table method. Since the histograms of the images in Fig. 5 are almost the same, the reference color table method cannot distinguish them, but the semi-run-length method can. However, the semi-run-length needs more memory space and processing time. Furthermore, the semi-run-length can recognize some lightness and rotation variances of images. For example, it can recognize the images in Fig. 6 and in Fig. 8. However, if the rotation and lightness variances between two images are too large, the method cannot recognize them. For instance, it cannot recognize the image pairs in Fig. 7 and in Fig. 9. Moreover, the method is insusceptible to a few noises in images. In these experiments, the proposed method can recognize the pair of images in Fig. 10; nevertheless, it cannot recognize the pair of images in Fig. 11 because of too many noises in the images. 16

19 6. Conclusions Color histogram is insensitive to noises, orientations, and resolution of images, and color matching can be processed automatically without human intervention. However, it is only a global attribute without any local information. Consequently, the color feature cannot effectively distinguish two distinct images even if they have quite different appearances. To make the retrieval more accurate, this paper introduces the concept of run-length feature. The feature can effectively characterize the direction, area and geometrical shape of an object. However, extracting the run-length feature is time-consuming. Therefore, this paper provides a more efficient representation, semi-run-length. On the basis of the semi-run-length feature, the proposed image retrieval system can offer better accuracy of recognition than that based on the color histogram proposed by (Mehtre et al., 1995). 18
